Great stay definitely recommend it."

2 bedroom accommodation in Skipton

8/10 Good

"Great location. A little cramped thank god there was only 2 of us. The second bedroom door only opened about 500mm due to an oversized bed. Property was a little tired, but overall we had a good week, but wouldn't recommend"

Town Head Farm

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect for 4 lads on a walking weekend"

Grisedale Stables Cottage

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely place to stay. Accommodation needs a little TLC. A little disappointed that there was limited t.v, and no dvds. We brought our pet dog with us and found there was no where to place doggy waste bags."

5 bedroom accommodation in Threshfield, near Grassington

8/10 Good

"Excellent. Woking farm next door."

3 bedroom accommodation in Hetton, near Skipton

10/10 Excellent

"Farfield House was wonderful and the best equipped cottage we have stayed in, just like home from home. A great base for visiting the Dales and although there arenâ€™t any amenities in the village (not quite true as there is a very expensive Michelin starred restaurant/pub within walking distance) itâ€™s not far to shops and pubs in Gargrave and the Devonshire Arms at Cracoe was wonderful, very dog friendly and the locals made us feel welcome. Would definitely recommend ðŸ˜Š"
